Another point that would be good to do is that there is an announcement
on the ietf-announce list when a new list is created, stating it's
purpose so that people who are interrested in this area now that it is
happening and not behind people's backs. At the moment one could check
on the mailman/listinfo/ page all the time but that isn't really
helpful.

Thus: please announce new lists when they are created.

PS: I like the idea of Digital Identity coming into the IETF arena, thus
I signed up, as for the BCC's I prolly didn't see it as SA-marked spams
go into /dev/null; enotime for checking them...
